Bengaluru: KRIDL, which is embroiled in a ₹118 crore works scam in the Rajarajeshwari Nagar assembly constituency, has carried out works worth ₹13 thousand crores in the six years since 2015, according to BBMP records.
Karnataka Rural Infrastructure Development Limited (KRIDL) has carried out various works in all assembly constituencies covered by BBMP. A complaint was filed in ACB on March 15, 2022 about the misappropriation of thousands of crores. It has now been transferred to the Lokayukta and the inquiry has started.
After it was proved that 113 works had not been carried out in the fake bill scam, the Lokayukta had suggested an inquiry into all the works carried out by KRIDL. Now the Lokayukta will investigate the complaint against the work worth ₹13 thousand crore.
Bangalore South District BJP Unit President Ramesh N.R. said in complaint that, ₹12,943,83,44,615 has been released for works carried out by KRIDL during the six-year period from 2015-16 to 2020-21. The information along with related work order and job code is given in 3,892 pages. During the same period, an amount of ₹8092,56,30,831 has been released to the 'sub-contractors' who have completed the work through KRIDL. He has also submitted a document of 6,932 pages officially obtained from BBMP in this regard.
According to the government orders, the most emergency works should be carried out by KRIDL through grants from Mayor and Deputy Mayor. However, without having a team of engineers, KRIDL's job is to get the work done and assign it to sub-contractors. The sub-contractors are given the title of 'Group Leader'. KRIDL charges a service charge of 11% of the estimated amount for each work.
In 50% of the works entrusted to KRIDL, the works are not carried out. The letter explained that in 13 cases in Gandhinagar Assembly Constituency, such a scam has come to light and FIR has also been registered against the accused.
Thus, KRIDL works worth Rs 13,000 crore should be thoroughly reviewed. Ramesh demanded that legal action should be taken against those who released the money to the benami sub-contractor and those who received the money.
